I still remember my childhood and the Delhi Public Library near to my house. It was very crucial to get issued the Library Card/Ticket due to attestation and other formalities.
They used to issue only one Book and used to finish it within an hour and then the long wait till next day of opening of Library at 4.00 pm. Library Tickets were gradually enhanced to 03 but to the very little relief to me.
By the time I reach home back from the corner Sweet Shop of our lane, I used to finish the unknown page of Sarita, Mukta, Chanda Mama etc. given for covering the curd etc., as reading was my passion.
I wrote my first story and sent for publication when I was hardly in Standard VI. Although, it came back unpublished but taught me a lesson and afterwards my stoires, poems, articles etc. kept on publishing.
AND today I am shocked to see the Generation Next, busy in exchanging CDs/DVDs and playing games that too on net what to talk of reading of books.? What do you say?
